I am an outlaw, I was born an outlaw's son
The highway is my legacy
On the highway I [bad word] 
In one hand I've a bible
In the other I've got a gun
Well, don't you know me
I'm the man who won
Woman don't try to love me
Don't try to understand
life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man

First left my woman, it was down in Santa Fe
Headed for Oklahoma, I was ridin' night and day
All of my friends are strangers,
They [bad word] and go

And all my loves in danger,
'cause I steal hearts and souls
Woman, don't try to love me
Don't try to understand
life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man
Oo....

Woman, don't try to love me
Don't try to understand
life upon the road is the life of an outlaw man

Some men call me abel,
Some men call me cain,
Some men call me sinner, lord
Some men call me saint

Some say theres a Jesus
Some men say there ain't
When you got no life to lose
Then theres nothin' left to gain
Outlaw man
Outlaw man
